Meh, just your basic brief stormy weather that will clear on out later the afternoon/evening. Nothing real noteworthy.

Please watch how you phrase items. We have nonregulars ( and regulars) who come into our little world and want to see weather updates. This will be an event, ( as per the HGX NWS) and we must all be weather aware. To say statements such as " This is a non-event for Houston, just like I predicted" is hindering this reasoning for this board, information transferrence. Please be weather aware. Thank you in advance.
Fair enough.

I tried finding this option but didn’t see it. The trolling is obvious. It makes the forum almost unreadable.

Strong inflow is pulling training storms along the I-45 corridor,which has me a little concern there may start to be some flood issues soon.

About 2.5 inches and still coming down steadily. Had some nice rumbles of thunder as well and liking the cooler temps. Sounds pretty bad out CPVs way, so hoping well for those folks.

Mods/Andrew/srain - any way* to hit the ban hammer on our resident troll? Just a nuisance and weak attempt at trolling the forum.
